ASCII85OutputStream, ASCIIHexOutputStream, FlateEncodeOutputStream, RunLengthEncodeOutputStream

public interface Finalizable

This interface is used for special FilteredOutputStream classes that won't be closed (since this causes the target OutputStream to be closed, too) but where flush() is not enough, for example because a final marker has to be written to the target stream.
